Think Inclusive Trailer

Welcome to Think Inclusive. Each week, we bring together families, educators, and disability rights advocates to build a shared understanding of inclusive education—and what inclusion looks like in real schools and communities.

Hosted by Tim Villegas, Director of Communications at the Maryland Coalition for Inclusive Education (MCIE), Think Inclusive shares real stories, practical strategies, and honest conversations that help you move inclusion forward where you are. It’s also a proud production of MCIE.

What you’ll hear in this feed:

• Straight‑talk interviews with educators, advocates, and self‑advocates who are changing systems.
• Clear, actionable ideas you can use in classrooms, IEP meetings, and leadership teams.
• Themes we return to often: belonging, presuming competence, UDL, co‑teaching, accessible materials, and shifting mindsets that sustain inclusive schools.

Why listen now: Since 2012, Think Inclusive has released over 200 episodes and ranks in the top 2% of podcasts globally—so you’ll find a deep, practical archive to learn from.

Our regular season runs September through July, with bonus episodes sprinkled in.
